Alright, I’ve recreated most of the website. There are odds and ends here and there that still need to be created or updated, and I need to pretty it up a bit and make it a bit smoother, but the near catastrophe has been avoided.
Almost Recovered
Good News!
OK, although I accidentally deleted the old site, I was able to do an Internet archive search and found archived versions of all the pages. So, luckily, the only bit of our old information that was lost was information on the 2018 playoffs. That should be easy enough to find.
I was hoping to keep the old site up until the new one was up and running, but at least it’s not all lost!
D’oh!
I may have lost the old website as I’m switching over to a new content manager. Hopefully I’ll find the backup and get it up and running soon!

Battlefields to Ballfields
The SGVFOA is looking for military veterans to become football officials. Through Battlefields to Ballfields, a program started by Mike Pereira, veterans are provided “an opportunity to integrate back into their communities through officiating and scholarships.” The foundation will pay for uniforms, dues, and insurance, and will provide a mentor to help veterans move up the officiating ladder.
